The passage- way into the prom was stone-lined with a heart shaped opening. A star covered backdrop provided the band with an appropriate background. A delicious dinner was provided by the dedicated Junior mothers. Mrs. Roberta Brewer was the after-dinner speaker giving an interesting and en- lightening talk on the theme of the Prom. The Prom Dance had music pro- vided by Stone from Pittsburgh, Ks. Candle lighted tables provided rest for the tired dancers and also added to the romantic mood of the night. Guests from outside the school were allowed to attend the activities letting us see again some of our old friends and meet some new ones. The Prom Party was held at the Blue Flame Room this year. A st r lined entrance led the way into the streamered sky and walls. Again, the wishing well provided the refresh- ments. An excellent youth vocal group from Newton provided the en- tertainment for the party.
